Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleThe Characterization of Al Bond Pad Surface Treatment in Electroless Nickel Immersion Gold (ENIG) DepositionM.K. Md Arshad, A. Jalar, I. Ahmad, G. OmarThis study reports a number of experiments that were designed to characterize aluminum bond pad surfaces prior to electroless nickel immersion gold (ENIG). In the ENIG process, aluminum bond pads need special treatment to achieve successful nickel deposition and provide reliable interconnection of under bump metallurgy in advanced packaging. During this treatment process, the aluminum pad was cleaned, activated and … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2007 · 7,722 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleComparative Analysis of Skid Resistance for Different Roadway Surface TreatmentsOsama A. Abaza, Tanay Datta Chowdhury, Mahmoud ArafatPavement skid resistance impacts road functionality and can affect user safety and vehicle operation costs. This study was an investigation of the effect of sealcoats on skid resistance. Seven different sealcoats-fog seal, chip seal, slurry seal, sand seal, high-friction seal, cape seal, and glass seal-were lab and field tested. Laboratory samples were further tested in the field on pavement sections. … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 4 · 10 Nov 2017 · 8,136 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleCATION-EXCHANGE MEMBRANES WITH POLYANILINE SURFACE LAYER FOR WATER TREATMENTDinar Dilshatovich Fazullin, Gennady Vitalevich Mavrin, Michael Pavlovich SokolovIon-exchange membranes are widely used in modern technologies, particularly in the field of water treatment and make it possible to considerably reduce expenses for wastewater treatment and ensure high degree of purification. Currently, perfluorinated sulfated proton-conducting membranes are often used, such as NAFION and its Russian analogue, MF-4SK based on co-polymerization product of a perfluorinated vinyl ether with tetrafluoroethylene. However, … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 5 · 13 Sep 2014 · 7,403 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleSurface Modification of Polystyrene Beads by Ultraviolet/Ozone Treatment and its Effect on Gelatin CoatingA. N. Yusilawati, M. Maizirwan, M. S. Hamzah et al.Problem statement: Polystyrene failed to provide any reactive functionality of surface hydrophilicity that is capable of binding proteins. It is known that polystyrene must be chemically modified to make its surface amenable to covalent crosslinking with protein. Approach: The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of UV/ozone treatment on gelatin coating. The surfaces of microsize polystyrene beads … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2010 · 8,844 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleTreatment of Stormwater Runoff and Landfill Leachates Using a Surface Flow Constructed WetlandA. Snow, A. E. Ghaly, R. CoteA surface flow wetland was constructed in the Burnside Industrial Park, Dartmouth, Nova Scotia, to treat stormwater runoff from the surrounding watersheds which are comprised primarily of commercial properties and two former landfills. The aim was to protect a freshwater ecosystem that consists of a 4.6 km long brook and two lakes. The ability of the constructed wetland to retain … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 30 Apr 2008 · 6,747 accessesView PDF Cite
